Bitcoin ETFs Pull in $301M, Snapping a Two-Week Losing Streak
US spot Bitcoin ETFs logged $301M in net inflows last week, ending a two-week stretch of outflows despite late-week turbulence.
If you've been watching Bitcoin ETFs nervously for the past couple of weeks, here's some good news: the bleeding has stopped — at least for now. US spot Bitcoin ETFs wrapped up the week with $301 million in net inflows, breaking a painful two-week outflow streak that had rattled crypto investors.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs — for those newer to the space — are investment funds that hold actual Bitcoin and trade on traditional stock exchanges, making it easier for everyday investors and big institutions to get exposure to crypto without managing a digital wallet.

Think of it as the market taking two steps forward, one step back — net progress, but not exactly a clean victory lap.
Whether this signals a true turning point or just a temporary blip will depend heavily on Bitcoin's price action and broader market sentiment in the weeks ahead. For now, bulls have a data point worth celebrating. Continue reading at Cointelegraph.
